So did you win? :p Good going on the non-concession.

Thank you and I will call you today. :)

And one last thing (I hope), if I implied that Paul was not objective (because of a prior conversation with someone that wasn't him) or that he was on the take, I do apologize as that was never my intention.

It doesn't matter what the hit actually was. Once a ref was called over it is in his/her hands. I owe more explicit apologies to everyone, so here goes: To Mr. Paul Sapp - my most abject apologies for 1. Confusing you with another ref. 2. For saying anything about you in an online forum...

Well, because I am Asian and hear that we all look alike, it has floored many people when I just tell them that they all look alike, always said in jest. It is my standard comeback when I forget someone's face and I am glad you can appreciate the humor. But I didn't feel like it was...

LOL, that's Joanne Ashton and our friend, Janice Ashworth.,,and Brady Gollan in the back.

Brian, I just want you to know that I have great respect for almost every ref out there. They take a lot of abuse and whenever a call is made, unless obvious, there is always going to be someone unhappy. I have many friends that are referees themselves, who have undergone rigorous training...

OK, now it was pointed out that Paul Sapp's name was misspelled. Geez, no good at copying and pasting, evidently. So another apology for not getting the last P in there.

I will help in any way I can. In fact, I will donate a complimentary cruise to the Bahamas or a 3 day/2 night vacation (transportation, port fees and/or taxes not included) for the highest contributor. :thumbup:

Where do you put your cueball? Not so much to make the 10 but to drop a ball and have a good shot on the 1 or the lowest numbered ball. Any suggestions? We are in a 10 ball tournament next weekend and I would like to find a good spot to start from. Sorry if this has been posted before. I...

I was asked to do a blog about my experiences at the Western BCA Regionals and took several refs to task. Apparently they weren't all the same one. And I will save my joke, "All white guys look alike" for a time when it will be appreciated. Even though they were my experiences and my...

I am issuing sincere apologies to the BCA Pool League and their referee program, Western BCA and National Senior Referee Paul Sapp. :thumbup:

I just saw Billy Jean King playing the Geico Caveman! :p

I don't really mind racking my own, at least I know I will get a fair rack. I just don't understand why you can't arrange an 8-ball rack to be fairly distributed. How did that impact anything or favor anyone? About the 8 ball break....we have a weekly 8 ball tournament on 9 foot Diamonds...

Ahhh, when I was young Ten years ago when I was in my FORTIES, I was pretty cute, LOL. Now, I'm just a hag! :eek:

Two new rules don't really make sense to me. 1. Racking your own. I think this was to cut down the interminable rack checking by the breaker, but especially in 9 ball, there are ways to influence a 9 ball break. :rolleyes: I don't think the opponent is going to check EVERY rack every time...

Just some input from someone who has seen both sides. I remember standing in line for pictures with Monica Webb at the IPT and asking her how the WPBA players finally got approval to play, and she said the Board members were sequestered and hammering out an agreement right then. Also, all the...

Congratulations! That is such a great feeling. Keep up the good work...and make sure you keep your promise to God! ;)

Usually, regional and world events are scheduled and finalized before the WPBA gets their schedules on the calendar. That is why there can be conflicts. We have had to rearrange our dates regionally which are secured the year before, so they didn't coincide with a WPBA event. Now that Mike H...

Tell Robb to pm me. I know him and Deno, and can give him the number.
